A slight mod to the filing/drilling method is to drill oversize hole or slot with a die grinder.horizontal or vertical slot for just toe or camber, large hole for both, place a large faced washer under the nut and just nip up a tad. light taps with a hammer to position where you want it and tack the washer in place. once tested and happy, fully weld the washer in place. this works for both camber and toe! Simples.

Ive noticed were all talking about how to do it. but nobody has mentioned any actual figures...

So what geometry settings are people running for front and rear, camber, toe, castor?

they dont apear to be all that different to the KAD ones (which i havent seen properly) So how can KAD justify being twice the price?

The quality of the KAD ones is far better than the Minisport / Minispares ones.

Have known both the minisport and minispares brakets to break at the welds.
No problems with the KAD ones.
Have run all three types on road, race and rally cars.. KAD would get my vote but you pays your money and takes your choice.

So what geometry settings are people running for front and rear, camber, toe, castor?

Book in for a geo setup and will set it up for your car and driving style.. :wub:

If its only the welds that are a problem, surely i could just check the welding, and add to it or redo it if nesercery? Saves me £50+ but i still get the benafits of a proper adjustable bracket.

And under what sort of use did they break?
